Isfahan is the capital of Isfahan Province and of the surrounding county and central district, located in central Iran roughly 440 kilometres south of Tehran. With about 1.96 million residents in the city and close to 2.24 million across its wider area, it is the third-most populous city in Iran and the centre of the country's second-largest metropolitan region.
Set on a high plain at around 1,574 metres above sea level, Isfahan has long been one of Iran's most significant urban centres, known historically as a hub of culture, trade, and architecture. Today it remains a major economic and administrative city, and its Muslim population observes the five daily prayers in mosques across its many neighbourhoods.
Prayer Times in Isfahan
Isfahan keeps Iran Standard Time (UTC+3:30) year-round with no daylight saving changes, so prayer times shift only with the seasons rather than with clock adjustments. At about 33°N the seasonal swing is moderate: long summer days push Fajr earlier and Isha later into the evening, while shorter winter days bring Maghrib to the late afternoon. Times on this page are calculated using the Institute of Geophysics, University of Tehran method, the standard reference for prayer timing across Iran.
Ramadan in Isfahan
During Ramadan, the daily fast in Isfahan runs from Fajr (dawn) to Maghrib (sunset), so the Suhoor and Iftar windows follow the same seasonal pattern as the prayer schedule. Because the city does not observe daylight saving time, the timing depends only on the season in which Ramadan falls, with no sudden clock shifts.
When Ramadan falls in summer, the long days at this latitude mean a longer fast with an early Suhoor and a later Iftar; when it falls in winter, shorter days bring an earlier sunset and a shorter fasting window. Worshippers can use the daily Maghrib time on this page to confirm when to break the fast, and the Fajr time to mark the start of the fast each day.
